As a passionate Disney Dream cruise enthusiast, I was shaken by an unexpected event that unfolded on June 29th during our voyage back from the enchanting Bahamas towards Fort Lauderdale. In the midst of our journey, a young girl tragically fell overboard. Without a moment’s hesitation, her brave father leaped into action, following her. Thankfully, the swift response and heroic efforts of the crew managed to rescue both of them. This harrowing incident has since captured the interest of many, leaving us all eager for more details about what transpired on that fateful day at sea.
Disney cruise ship incident explained
On a tranquil Disney cruise day, Sunday, June 29, transformed into a shocking event. A young girl inadvertently slipped and fell from the fourth level of the Disney Dream ship. This incident occurred as the vessel was heading back to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, concluding a four-night journey across the Bahamas that also included a visit at Disney’s private island, Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.
It’s thought that the child accidentally fell off Deck 4, a usually safe spot for strolling with transparent plastic barriers. Immediately after she tumbled into the water, her father swiftly dove in without a moment’s pause. The specific circumstances leading to her fall remain unclear.
The alarm “Mr. M.O.B.” (short for “man overboard”) was activated across the vessel, urging the team to act quickly. As reported by Disney Cruise Line, rescue squads sprang into action almost immediately, tossing out life jackets and launching a lifeboat to save the duo. A representative from Disney Dream stated that their crew members successfully rescued two passengers from the water. We applaud our crew for their remarkable abilities and quick responses, which resulted in both individuals being safely returned to the ship within minutes.
It was uncertain at first if the Disney Dream was anchored or in motion, but onlookers confirmed it was sailing between the Bahamas and Florida when the incident occurred. The Daily Mail stated that the father managed to keep his daughter afloat for about 20 minutes by swimming, until they were eventually rescued.
